Pros

The people are great there is a strong collaboration ethic in the F5 culture . You do not have the Zero Sum Game mentality that is common at most tech companies. It is a smaller company so you can have a great impact in the business and feel more connected to the broader company as a whole.

Cons

The pay is comparable but the benefits like medical does not cover as much. Other than that no real down side so far.
